Now with flying goblins
With the Tolkien-inspired MOBA,Guardians of Middle-earth,launching next month on XBLA and PSN, its high time we find out a bit more about a couple of the 20 or so characters at players’ disposal. Haldir is the elf who brought the Fellowship to Lothlorien in the books, but inGuardianshe’s more a man of action rather than a tour guide. Stealth, jumping about, using a bow, he’s an elf alright.
His villainous counterpart, Lugbol, is clearly the superior character, regardless of stats, facts, or your wrong opinions. He’s a sorcerous goblin with a wolf chum. The guy floats. Some blonde elf chap, or a flying goblin who shoots fire from his hands? It’s no contest.
Also, and more importantly, you can win a life sized statue of Gandalf if you go onto theFacebook pageand participate in the ritual of social networking or something. No doubt whatever it is, it’s worth it for a massive statue of one of the most bad ass wizards of all time. Top ten, at least.
